From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 902: Cupcake Mission



"It's already our seventh day," Haruki grumbled. Casper turned to him and was startled by his appearance.

During their first three days, it was obvious that the cast members still put a lot of effort into their looks.

However, now that they were on their seventh day, most of them sported bare faces.

Haruki's stubble had grown in, and his hair was unkempt. Meanwhile, Jisung's dark circles had become more prominent after their consecutive night missions.

Mimi and Hana, too, appeared paler than before. Mei, on the other hand, appeared like she had lost her mind. It was probably the lack of junk food in her system. For the past six days, all they had eaten were fresh produce.

"You alright?" Jisung asked in a gruff voice, nudging Mei.

Mei's hands shook. "I...need...GMOs," she muttered.

Jisung pursed his lips and stared off into the distance. "Same," he muttered. "I really want a chicken nugget."

Pablo arrived, appearing like a stale bag of chips.

Mimi's eyebrows raised in surprise. "You didn't wash your face," she said.

Pablo groaned and slumped down on the big bench under the mango tree. It had been their hang-out place ever since, and most of the cast members went there to greet the morning sun. However, even the sun couldn't cheer them up today.

"Who cares?" Pablo groaned, placing his head on top of Casper's lap. "I'm not an idol like you, guys. They won't care if I haven't washed my face."

Then, Joonie also arrived. The others turned to him and scowled.

"Why does this dude look fine, though?" Pablo asked. "Have you been eating more than us?"

"I feel like I've lost weight from only eating sweet potatoes and leaves," Uno muttered.

Joonie scratched the back of his neck. "We eat the same thing."

Hana sighed. "I am really hungry, though."

Pablo turned to Ramil PD, who appeared like he didn't care about their sentiments. "Hey, Ramil," he said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ramil lifted his head. "What's up?"

"Are you going to make us work on the seventh day, too?" he asked. "Even the creator of the world rested on the seventh day!"

Ramil smiled. "We're not the creators of the world," he simply said, causing the others to groan in disappointment.

Just then, Pablo looked around. "Where's June?"

"Cooking, as usual," Casper responded.

Pablo sighed in relief. "I'm so thankful for June. He silently does things like this."

"Well, he's the only member who can make root crops taste pretty good," Hana said. "I hope

he makes a decent amount since I'm really hungry."

"That's the second time you said that," Mimi remarked.

Hana's eyebrows furrowed. "Because I'm really hungry."

Just in time, June came out of the house with a pot in one hand and eating utensils in the other.

They nearly rejoiced as he placed it down on the bench.

However, before any of that, they couldn't help but notice June's bare face.

"What the heck?" Haruki exclaimed, standing from the bench and placing his hands on June's cheeks.

The others turned to them in surprise. Haruki started squishing June's cheeks, even going as far as wiping his palm on his white shirt to see if he was wearing some makeup.

Then, he turned to Casper and Jisung, who were used to such appearance.

"Why does he look like that?" he asked.

"Perfect?" Casper asked. "He just does. He's like that. Even Zeth is amazed."

Mimi shook her head in amazement. "It feels like we're filming different shows. How can you still look...fresh?"

Mei pursed her lips as she observed Kai. Was this the work of Fu? How come it wasn't working for her just yet? What tier did he reach before he gave the flamboyant system away?

June pushed Haruki away. "Just eat," he said.

With that, June sat next to Joonie, who quickly scooted away. He had tried so much for his appearance, yet a guy like June just went and threw away those efforts!

They started eating, and as much as the food was good, they had been eating the same things for the past few days.

"That's the last bit of our harvest," June said, capturing their attention. "I wouldn't be able to cook anything for tomorrow unless we win a mission."

The others pursed their lips while others groaned in disappointment.

"By the time we finish a mission, I already don't have an appetite," Uno said.

"Yeah," Haruki agreed. "Remember the time we had to pack dung fertilizer before breakfast? Never again!"

"And all they give us was bitter vegetables afterward!" Jisung added, grimacing at the

thought.

"I thought it was good," June said, liking the bitter taste. Somehow, it could never be more bitter than his past life!

"That's because you aren't normal," Haruki chimed. "Anyway, I want a good lunch. Let's do a mission."

The others groaned but nodded in response.

They turned to Ramil PD, who was waiting for them to finish their conversation.

"Oh, you guys are going to do a mission today. It's mandatory," he started off.

The cast members listened intently, wanting to get it over with.

"However, do not worry. This does not really cost manual labor."

They nearly rejoiced...nearly.

"The village is going to have a mini get-together in their senior's home later in the

afternoon," he started off.

"They will be cooking food, and they had invited us to their party."

"However, we cannot come empty-handed. You guys need to prepare something for them-

the dessert."

Pablo felt his heart race in excitement. "Are we allowed to eat at the party?"

"Yes," Ramil PD said. "As long as you guys create as many cupcakes for 50 individuals, then you can eat with them. We will be giving you the needed ingredients. You need to finish it

before noon to be able to complete the mission."

"Yes!" Mimi exclaimed. "This is the kind of mission that I want!"

"How about our lunch?" Jisung asked. "Since we're doing this mission, are you also going to

be giving us lunch?"

Ramil PD tilted his head to the side.

"Lunch?" he asked. "This is a dinner mission."

The others knew it was too good to be true.

"Then, what should we have for lunch?" Casper asked, sounding exasperated.

"You guys have your crops," Ramil said.

"They're gone," June deadpanned.

A small smile made its way onto Ramil PD's face.

"And that's why I warned you on the first day-use them wisely."
